Revelation 16
1 [In the vision] I heard [someone] in the temple speak in a loud voice to the angels [who had the seven bowls]. He said, “Go [from here] and pour out on the earth [the wine/liquid in] [MTY] the seven bowls. [This will show that] God is angry with [rebellious people and will punish them].”
我また聖所より大なる聲ありて、七人の御使に『往きて神の憤恚の七つの鉢を地の上に傾けよ』と言ふを聞けり。
2 So the first angel went and poured out on the earth [the wine/liquid that was in] [MTY] his bowl. [As a result], horrible and painful sores broke out on God’s enemies who had allowed the beast’s [agents] to mark them and who worshipped the image of the beast.
かくて第一の者ゆきて其の鉢を地の上に傾けたれば、獸の徽章を有てる人々とその像を拜する人々との身に、惡しき苦しき腫物 生じたり。
3 The second angel poured out on the ocean [the wine/liquid that was in] [MTY] his bowl. [As a result], the [water in the ocean stank like the blood] of a person who has died. [And] [MTY] every living creature that was in the ocean died.
第二の者その鉢を海の上に傾けたれば、海は死人の血の如くなりて、海にある生物ことごとく死にたり。
4 The third angel poured out on the rivers and water springs [the wine/liquid] [MTY] [that was in] his bowl. [As a result, the water in the rivers and springs] turned into blood.
第三の者その鉢をもろもろの河と、もろもろの水の源泉との上に傾けたれば、みな血となれり。
5 I heard the angel [who has authority over] the waters say [to God], “[O God], you exist and have always existed. You are the holy one. You judge people justly.
われ水を掌どる御使の『いま在し昔います聖なる者よ、なんぢの斯く定め給ひしは正しき事なり。
6 [The rebellious people] murdered your holy people and prophets. So you are just in punishing them by giving them blood to drink. This is what they deserve!”
彼らは聖徒と預言者との血を流したれば、之に血を飮ませ給ひしは相應しきなり』と云へるを聞けり。
7 Then I heard [an angel] respond [from] the altar [PRS], “Yes, Lord God, you who are almighty, you punish [people] rightly and justly!”
我また祭壇の物 言ふを聞けり『然り、主なる全能の神よ、なんぢの審判は眞なるかな、義なるかな』と。
8 Then the fourth angel poured out on the sun [the wine/liquid that was in] [MTY] his bowl. [He] enabled the sun to scorch [people] with fiery [heat].
第四の者その鉢を太陽の上に傾けたれば、太陽は火をもて人を燒くことを許さる。
9 Because people were severely burned by the intense heat {the intense heat severely burned people}, they said evil things about God [MTY], [because] he had the power [to strike people with] plagues like those. But they refused to stop their evil behavior and refused to honor him.
かくて人々 烈しき熱に燒かれて、此 等の苦難を掌どる權威を有たちまふ神の名を涜し、かつ悔改めずして神に榮光を歸せざりき。
10 When the fifth angel poured out on the throne of the beast [the wine/liquid that was in] [MTY] his bowl, it became dark in the kingdom that the beast [ruled. As a result, the beast and the people whom it ruled] were biting their tongues because [they were suffering intense] pain.
第五の者その鉢を獸の座位の上に傾けたれば、獸の國 暗くなり、その國人 痛によりて己の舌を齧み、
11 They insulted God [who rules in] heaven, because their sores were so painful. But they refused to stop doing the [evil] things that they were doing.
その痛と腫物とによりて天の神を涜し、かつ己が行爲を悔改めざりき。
12 The sixth angel poured out on the huge river Euphrates [the wine/liquid that was in] [MTY] his bowl. [As a result, the] water [in the river] was dried up so that the rulers from the eastern [MTY] [countries could cross it with their armies] [SYN].
第六の者その鉢を大なる河ユウフラテの上に傾けたれば、河の水 涸れたり。これ日の出づる方より來る王たちの途を備へん爲なり。
13 I saw evil spirits that looked like frogs. One came out of the mouth of the dragon, one from the mouth of the beast, and one from the mouth of the false prophet.
我また龍の口より、獸の口より、僞 預言者の口より、蛙のごとき三つの穢れし靈の出づるを見たり。
14 Those spirits were demons who were [able to] perform miracles. They went out to the rulers of the whole world, in order to gather their [armies] [SYN] together to the battle that [they will fight] on the wonderful day when Almighty God [punishes his enemies] [MTY].
これは徴をおこなふ惡鬼の靈にして、全能の神の大なる日の戰鬪のために全世界の王たちを集めんとて、その許に出でゆくなり。
15 The evil spirits will gather the rulers at a place that is called in the Hebrew [language] Armageddon. [I heard the Lord Jesus say], “[You must] listen carefully to [me]: I am coming unexpectedly [SIM], like a thief. [So], I will be happy with those who stay alert and [keep on living righteously so that they will not be ashamed], just like [MET] a person keeps his clothes [on] so that he will not be ashamed [like a person who is] naked.”
（視よ、われ盜人のごとく來らん、裸にて歩み羞所を見らるることなからん爲に、目を覺してその衣を守る者は幸福なり）
かの三つの靈、王たちをヘブル語にてハルマゲドンと稱ふる處に集めたり。
17 The seventh angel poured out into the air [the wine/liquid that was in] [MTY] his bowl. [As a result, someone] said with a loud voice from the throne in the temple, “[The time for God to finish punishing rebellious people] is [about to be] start.”
第七の者その鉢を空中に傾けたれば、聖所より御座より大なる聲いでて『事すでに成れり』と言ふ。
18 [When the angel emptied his bowl], lightning flashed, there were rumblings and thunder, and the earth shook. It shook more violently than it has ever shaken since people first [lived] on earth.
かくて數多の電光と聲と雷霆とあり、また大なる地震おこれり、人の地の上に在りし以來かかる大なる地震なかりき。
19 And [as a result], the very evil city [that is symbolized by Babylon] split into three parts. [God also] destroyed cities in [other] nations. God did not forget that [the people of] [MTY] the very evil [city symbolized by] Babylon [had sinned very much]. So he [caused the people with whom] he was furiously angry [MET] [to drink] a cup of very [poisonous wine/liquid that represented his punishment].
大なる都は三つに裂かれ、諸國の町々は倒れ、大なるバビロンは神の前におもひ出されて、劇しき御怒の葡萄酒を盛りたる酒杯を與へられたり。
20 Also [as a result of the earthquake], every island disappeared, and the mountains became flat land.
凡ての島は逃げさり、山は見えずなれり。
21 Also [as a result of the angel’s emptying his bowl], huge hailstones, each weighing about 100 pounds, fell from the sky onto the people. Then people insulted God because [he had caused] the destructive hail to fall on them in that terrible plague.
また天より百 斤ほどの大なる雹、人々の上に降りしかば、人々 雹の苦難によりて神を涜せり。是その苦難 甚だしく大なればなり。
